Tobacco Factory Market — Attraction in Bristol

I'm always amused when ex students spring a "hello sir!" from behind the bar/sales desk they're working behind. Most (it happens a lot - I've been in the trade a while) just look at me as if to say "I know you I'm sure but I'm not saying anything in case I'm wrong". I'm just as mute but usually because I'm thinking "I know you for sure but I'm not saying anything in case I embarrassingly get your name wrong" So yes - always nice. After she'd pulled my pint and we'd exchanged pleasantries I sat down. Very busy (as per usual on a Saturday) but even more so since I was joining the hoards to watch city (as it turned out) thump Norwich today.

Nice selection of stalls - there are about 40 in total (its not a very big market) Lots of food- I've had several different hummus flavours; my friend bought some ceramic mugs which were on the pricey side; we also got some tempeh, which was delicious; I bought a handmade ring for the very reasonable price of £12.
